Thanks guys. Amos, I will try the hostel thing again. In the past year I have emailed and tried to call-- nada.

Oh yeah, a booking agent would be heaven. I tried a local one up north, and got more (read "the only") gigs myself. I had already worked and knew the territory better than the booker, who was busy with her boyfriend & brother's acts. Plus I can represent us the best really. We're a bit difficult to nail labelwise for some reason. Seems the bigger ones want you to have a name already that they can sell around...but if you know of any booking agents, we're sure open to it! A good indie agent is desparately needed at this level.

Venues are ALWAYS welcome Kat. For that matter, we always try to share the venues we've found with anyone who's interested.(Just ask!) It's not a competition to us, and venues (usually) like different acts coming through.

We do have sound samples on our site. Our site click on music (oddly enuf!)I'm even working on an epk page so bookers that are too busy to look at our website only have to go to one page.I still have to get video and sound to it tho.

One of my biggest complaints is bookers who string you along for months and then turn you down for one reason or another that they could easily have told you the first time. Don't know if it's just a power trip...but that's probably for another thread!

This weekend we have two real gigs north of Atlanta; sent the promo material ahead and prayed! Hopefully someone will turn out!
